Nestled in the heart of Churchhaven, a secluded fishing village within the pristine West Coast National Park, Whalesong Beach Cottage is a coastal retreat where time slows, and nature takes center stage. With its blue roof peeking through the fynbos, framed by the still turquoise waters of the Langebaan Lagoon, this hideaway offers the perfect blend of rustic charm and refined comfort. Just opposite the century-old church, where bells toll each Sunday, the cottage invites you into a world of sun-drenched days, peaceful solitude, and the simple pleasures of life by the sea.

True to the village’s heritage and commitment to sustainability, Whalesong Beach Cottage embraces its fisherman’s cottage roots with whitewashed walls, contemporary furnishings, and sweeping windows that reflect the blues and greens of its natural surroundings. Two separate cottages—linked by a long, shaded stoep—offer cozy living spaces, breezy bedrooms, and picture-perfect views of the lagoon and wetlands beyond. Here, mornings are spent wandering down to the water’s edge, afternoons filled with paddling, birdwatching, or lazy reading, and evenings gathered around the firepit, where stories and starlight stretch long into the night.
